Overview

The APT3216SYCK is a yellow surface-mount LED in a standard 1206 (3216 metric) package with a peak wavelength of 590nm. It features a colorless, clear lens and a wide 120-degree viewing angle for effective light dispersion in indicator applications. This LED operates at a standard forward current of 20mA and is designed for low power consumption in compact electronics.

Why Choose This Part

The 1206 footprint provides a balance between ease of soldering and board space efficiency, making it suitable for both automated assembly and prototyping. Its wide viewing angle ensures visibility from off-axis positions, while the halogen-free and RoHS-compliant construction meets modern environmental standards.

Applications

Status Indication
Ideal for power-on lights, fault indicators, and activity signaling on printed circuit boards.
Backlighting
Suitable for backlighting switches, symbols, and LCD panels in consumer electronics.
Network Equipment
Used in router and switch faceplates to indicate port status and connectivity.
Medical Devices
Provides clear visual feedback on handheld diagnostic tools and monitoring equipment.
